Implications of Oxidative and Nitrosative Post-Translational Modifications in Therapeutic Strategies against Reperfusion Damage. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:749. [PMID: 34066806 PMCID: PMC8151040 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10050749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2021] [Revised: 05/03/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Post-translational modifications based on redox reactions "switch on-off" the biological activity of different downstream targets, modifying a myriad of processes and providing an efficient mechanism for signaling regulation in physiological and pathological conditions. Such modifications depend on the generation of redox components, such as reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide. Therefore, as the oxidative or nitrosative milieu prevailing in the reperfused heart is determinant for protective signaling, in this review we defined the impact of redox-based post-translational modifications resulting from either oxidative/nitrosative signaling or oxidative/nitrosative stress that occurs during reperfusion damage. The role that cardioprotective conditioning strategies have had to establish that such changes occur at different subcellular levels, particularly in mitochondria, is also presented. Another section is devoted to the possible mechanism of signal delivering of modified proteins. Finally, we discuss the possible efficacy of redox-based therapeutic strategies against reperfusion damage.

Cardioprotective reperfusion strategies differentially affect mitochondria: Studies in an isolated rat heart model of donation after circulatory death (DCD). Am J Transplant 2019; 19:331-344.

Abstract
Donation after circulatory death (DCD) holds great promise for improving cardiac graft availability; however, concerns persist regarding injury following warm ischemia, after donor circulatory arrest, and subsequent reperfusion. Application of preischemic treatments is limited for ethical reasons; thus, cardioprotective strategies applied at graft procurement (reperfusion) are of particular importance in optimizing graft quality. Given the key role of mitochondria in cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, we hypothesize that 3 reperfusion strategies-mild hypothermia, mechanical postconditioning, and hypoxia, when briefly applied at reperfusion onset-provoke mitochondrial changes that may underlie their cardioprotective effects. Using an isolated, working rat heart model of DCD, we demonstrate that all 3 strategies improve oxygen-consumption-cardiac-work coupling and increase tissue adenosine triphosphate content, in parallel with increased functional recovery. These reperfusion strategies, however, differentially affect mitochondria; mild hypothermia also increases phosphocreatine content, while mechanical postconditioning stimulates mitochondrial complex I activity and reduces cytochrome c release (marker of mitochondrial damage), whereas hypoxia upregulates the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator (regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis). Characterization of the role of mitochondria in cardioprotective reperfusion strategies should aid in the identification of new, mitochondrial-based therapeutic targets and the development of effective reperfusion strategies that could ultimately facilitate DCD heart transplantation.

Abstract
Electron leakage from dysfunctional respiratory chain and consequent superoxide formation leads to mitochondrial and cell injury during ischemia and reperfusion (IR). In this work we evaluate if the supramolecular assembly of the respiratory complexes into supercomplexes (SCs) is associated with preserved energy efficiency and diminished oxidative stress in post-ischemic hearts treated with the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and the cardioprotective maneuver of Postconditioning (PostC). Hemodynamic variables, infarct size, oxidative stress markers, oxygen consumption and the activity/stability of SCs were compared between groups. We found that mitochondrial oxygen consumption and the activity of respiratory complexes are preserved in mitochondria from reperfused hearts treated with both NAC and PostC. Both treatments contribute to recover the activity of individual complexes. NAC reduced oxidative stress and maintained SCs assemblies containing Complex I, Complex III, Complex IV and the adapter protein SCAFI more effectively than PostC. On the other hand, the activities of CI, CIII and CIV associated to SCs assemblies were preserved by this maneuver, suggesting that the activation of other cardioprotective mechanisms besides oxidative stress contention might participate in maintaining the activity of the mitochondrial respiratory complexes in such superstructures. We conclude that both the monomeric and the SCs assembly of the respiratory chain contribute to the in vivo functionality of the mitochondria. However, although the ROS-induced damage and the consequent increased production of ROS affect the assembly of SCs, other levels of regulation as those induced by PostC, might participate in maintaining the activity of the respiratory complexes in such superstructures.

Abstract
Cytidine-5'-diphosphocholine (CDP-choline) participates as an intermediary in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, an essential component of cellular membranes. Citicoline treatment has shown beneficial effects in cerebral ischemia, but its potential to diminish reperfusion damage in liver has not been explored. In this work, we evaluated the hepatoprotective effect of citicoline and its possible association with inflammatory/oxidative stress and mitochondrial function because they are the main cellular features of reperfusion damage. Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) in rat livers was performed with the Pringle's maneuver, clamping the 3 elements of the pedicle (hepatic artery, portal vein, and biliary tract) for 30 minutes and then removing the clamp to allow hepatic reperfusion for 60 minutes. The I/R + citicoline group received the compound before I/R. Liver injury was evaluated by measuring aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase as well as lactic acid levels in serum; proinflammatory cytokines, proresolving lipid mediators, and nuclear factor kappa B content were determined as indicators of the inflammatory response. Antioxidant effects were evaluated by measuring markers of oxidative stress and antioxidant molecules. Oxygen consumption and the activities of the respiratory chain were used to monitor mitochondrial function. CDP-choline reduced aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), as well as lactic acid levels in blood samples from reperfused rats. Diminution in tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and increase in the proresolving lipid mediator resolvin D1 were also observed in the I/R+citicoline group, in comparison with the I/R group. Oxidative/nitroxidative stress in hepatic mitochondria concurred with deregulation of oxidative phosphorylation, which was associated with the loss of complex III and complex IV activities. In conclusion, CDP-choline attenuates liver damage caused by ischemia and reperfusion by reducing oxidative stress and maintaining mitochondrial function. Liver Transplantation XX XX-XX 2018 AASLD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The widespread application of tourniquets has reduced battlefield mortality related to extremity exsanguinations. Tourniquet-induced ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R) can contribute to muscle loss. Postischemic conditioning (PostC) confers protection against I/R in cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle flaps. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of PostC on extremity muscle viability in an established rat hindlimb tourniquet model. METHODS Rats were randomly assigned to PostC-1, PostC-2, or no conditioning ischemic groups (n = 10 per group). Postischemic conditioning, performed immediately after tourniquet release, consisted of four 15-second cycles (PostC-1) or eight 15-second cycles (PostC-2) of alternating occlusion and perfusion of hindlimbs. Twenty-four hours later, muscles were excised. The primary end points were muscle edema and viability; secondary end points were histologic and markers of oxidative stress. RESULTS Ischemia-reperfusion injury decreased viability in all tourniquet limbs, but viability was not improved in either PostC group. Likewise, I/R resulted in substantial muscle edema that was not reduced by PostC. The predominant histologic feature was necrosis, but no significant differences were found among groups. Markers of oxidative stress were increased similarly among groups after I/R, although myeloperoxidase activity was significantly increased only in the no conditioning ischemic group. A protective effect from PostC was not observed in our model suggesting that PostC was not effective in reducing I/R skeletal muscle injury or any benefits of PostC were not sustained for 24 hours when tissues were assessed. CONCLUSION These negative findings are pertinent as the military investigates different strategies to extend the safe time for tourniquet application.

Abstract
Postconditioning (PostC) activates endogenous protective mechanisms that contend against reperfusion injury. Nevertheless, although PostC efficiency in both experimental studies and clinical trials has been demonstrated, a complete picture of the interacting mechanisms, particularly the relationship between kinase signaling and redox maintenance, is still lacking. To unravel such association, in this work we focus on the participation of protein kinase C (PKC) and the transcription factor nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in the cardioprotective response elicited by PostC. PostC was performed in an in vivo rat model by applying three repetitive cycles of ischemia and reperfusion (10 s each), followed by evaluation of heart function and infarct size measurements. PKC activation and Nrf2 phosphorylation were evaluated after 10 min of reperfusion, whereas Nrf2 activity and the content and activities of Nrf2-regulated antioxidant proteins were evaluated after 60 min of reperfusion in PostC hearts. Maintenance of heart function and diminution in infarct size concurred with PKC activation and Nrf2 phosphorylation. PKC inhibition diminished Nrf2 phosphorylation and transcriptional activity in association with diminished levels and activities of Nrf2-regulated antioxidant proteins. In conclusion, this study proposes that the novel pathway PKC/Nrf2 participates in the long-term protective mechanisms induced by PostC application by maintaining the antioxidant defense system.

Abstract
Curcumin, a natural pigment with antioxidant activity obtained from turmeric and largely used in traditional medicine, is currently being studied in the chemoprevention of several diseases for its pleiotropic effects and nontoxicity. In chronic renal failure, the pathogenic mechanisms leading to cardiovascular disorders have been associated with increased oxidative stress, a process inevitably linked with mitochondrial dysfunction. Thus, in this study we aimed at investigating if curcumin pretreatment exerts cardioprotective effects in a rat model of subtotal nephrectomy (5/6Nx) and its impact on mitochondrial homeostasis. Curcumin was orally administered (120mg/kg) to Wistar rats 7 days before nephrectomy and after surgery for 60 days (5/6Nx+curc). Renal dysfunction was detected a few days after nephrectomy, whereas changes in cardiac function were observed until the end of the protocol. Our results indicate that curcumin treatment protects against pathological remodeling, diminishes ischemic events, and preserves cardiac function in uremic rats. Cardioprotection was related to diminished reactive oxygen species production, decreased oxidative stress markers, increased antioxidant response, and diminution of active metalloproteinase-2. We also observed that curcumin's cardioprotective effects were related to maintaining mitochondrial function. Aconitase activity was significantly higher in the 5/6Nx + curc (408.5±68.7nmol/min/mg protein) than in the 5/6Nx group (104.4±52.3nmol/min/mg protein, P<0.05), and mitochondria from curcumin-treated rats showed enhanced oxidative phosphorylation capacities with both NADH-linked substrates and succinate plus rotenone (3.6±1 vs 1.1±0.9 and 3.1±0.7 vs 1.2±0.8, respectively, P<0.05). The mechanisms involved in cardioprotection included both direct antioxidant effects and indirect strategies that could be related to protein kinase C-activated downstream signaling.
